This video covers a topic that I find interesting and have never thought about quite in this way. Many languages have gender-neutral third-person pronouns, but English is often thought not to be one of them. That thinking is wrong, and Colonel Sanders' grumpy brother here is about to school you.

If you want more, you can find his grumpy language blog here. A choice quote from a recent post: "I’ll take pie rather than cake, gin rather than vodka in my martini, and silence rather than noise about pet peeves." (I'm definitely with him on the gin, and I suppose we did serve pie in lieu of cake at my wedding.)

Had such a cool morning seeing Chelsea Clinton talk about wildlife, conservation, and her new book, Don’t Let Them Disappear. I’m so impressed with her understanding of the complexities of conservation, and the important roles that zoos play in protecting species. Check out this great book for the little animal lovers in your life. 🦈
PS—Her 4-year-old daughter is obsessed with sharks. She asked why there weren’t more sharks in the book, and was told that different people like different things, and not everyone loves sharks as much as she does. She replied, “Well, they should.” She was told that then that was her job, to get other people to love and care about sharks, and tell their stories. I mean like does Chelsea Clinton want a job bc I’m feeling a little threatened 🐘🦏🦍🦒🦛🦓🦈🦈🦈 #endextinction #dontletthemdisappear #chelseaclinton #sandiegozoo
